POLICE are warning drivers to be vigilant following a spate of thefts from motor vehicles in Axminster.

Seven thefts have taken place in the Woodbury Park area from Friday, September 11, to Saturday, September 12.

PC Darren Herridge said: "If you have got valuables in your vehicle, please take them out when you lock up for the evening.

"Putting them away out of sight is good but not ideal as people sometimes break-in on the off-chance that something is left inside.
